I'm looking for a Varmint/Small game rifle in 243 AI. I don't want a BR gun so must be field portable.
Can anyone recommend a good custom riflemaker.
Budget will be about $4K

I have a FN Supreme 300 Muskateer thats stocked in English Walnut, 2-pos M70 tyoe safety, custom bottom metal with a Mule Deer head engraved on it, in 243 Win. caliber. The action and the rear portion of the barrel is also engraved. It has Redfie;d bases and Leupold Rings. The rifle is completely rust blued. The stock was done by Lenard Brownell. I don't know how I would get it to you but would ship it in a hard case for $3500. Tom Mason Moore, Oklahoma.
